EAGER BIRDS OF PREY.

Following the beleaguered steer, and
circling around it as il dashed here and
there in its vain attempts to escape from
the torture to which it's cruel pursuers
were subjecting it, the herdsmen cast their
lariats again and again, and after several
attempts each lassOed a cand0r. Once
the poor steer, as if looking TO US for
assistance in his extremity, rushed In
among the horsemen and crowds OF
spectators. Regardless Of our presence, the
desperate condors clung to his bleeding
sides or dashed along in his wake. The
doomed animal was black with dust and
streaming with blood from q hundred
wounds. The excited crowd scattered
before the advance of the steer, and the
lassoers, having strangled to death the
condors they had captured, advanced again
to cast their lariats. The steer circled
around in a stumbling and unsteady way.
He carried his head high, and once stag
gered and fell. With great effort ne re-
gained his feet, and once more moved
towards the crowd OF spectators. Bloody
foam dropped in great masses from bus
mouth. His loud cries ofagony had changed
to husky means. His tongue, red and swol-
len hung at full length from his mouth.
AS he passed me huge condor dashed for
ward, seized the steers tongue in its beak
and wrenehed it out by the roots. TIE
steer threw its head up with heart-rend-
ing cry, and then saw two hideous, sight
less cavities, dripping blood, where the
eyes had been plucked from their sockets.
= THE spot where the steer had been
separated by the condors from the herd
was not more than an eighth Of mile from

cecdings is quickly notified to- desist.

chair. Then drawing a cigar from his
pocket he proceeded to enjoy what is
known as Il "dry smoke His action
threw the yigilant state officials into
state of terror, from which they have

Immediately rushed forward, and seiz-

Butler, still holding the cigar in his
teeth.

the marshal's reply; ''but you must not

take a dry smoke, but the marshal in

the cigar from him with such force that

A NICE NEIGIfBOR.

81 don't think | should have taken
this house if | had known there was
marble-yard SO near" said Mrs. Graf
ton fretfully. 1T almost drives me
frantic to hear that man chip, chip,
chipping all day"
You can hardly call that marble
yard, mamma" Laura answered sooth-
ingly, as she glanced across the, way at
the solitary nworkman under a small
shed, where perhaps half-a-dozen blocks
of fine white marble stood ready for
the chisel.
II call it an aggravation. They said
it was nice neighborhood. Well, it
may be, but | don't fancy watching a
man making tombstones all day"
''Is that what he does?' asked Laura,
looking pensiyely at the workman over
the way.
He displayed fine set of muscles,
as he stood with his flannel shirt open
and his sleeves rolled UP, looking
about for a place to put d. large new
block of marble. He was II tall man,
close-knit and supple, with good head
and eyes of great power.
Laura stood watching him, and Won
dering how many times that little
chisel he held had Clipped out Sacred

was an annex to small one-story
structure.

man" she unused; call alone, cutting
tombstones from one weeks end to the
other. Oh, mammal
Her cry of dismay came from the
fact that the stonecutter over the way
had attempted to lift large block of
marble on to Il small truck, and it was
too heavy for him.
There was a great crashing thud,
and then he dropped to the ground,
white and insensihlc As the marble be-
side him.
''Oh, MAMMA, mamma cried Lau-
ia, springing up, she has killed him
self!''
She dashed downstairs and ont at the
front door. over to the nlarbie-yard,
where Mrs Grafton followed her at a
more leisurel, pace.
The mau was lying on the ground,
and a small stream of blood was ebbing
from has lips.
Laura l.fsed his head and babe her
mother bring salt and water, while she
summoned II little boy, who ran for the
doctor.

man. This is too bad! | was afraid

volunteer aids to lift the injured man
on to an improvised litter. Take him
right into the house, please"
The ''house" proved to be one large
room, furnished for the most part with
pieces of marble, wrapped in drapery
of brown muslin. The floor was litter
ed with chips of marble and dust,
while the bare white walls we're rudely
marked with charcoal outlines and GER

faneied were the beginnings of monu-

Laura, bursting into tears. you

hands, voice that sounded to him like

hand she held out to him. "Can it be
that you love ME well enough to be-
come the wife of marble-cutterp"
Il have made up my mind not to

IA, smiling.
And Stefano caught her in his arms,
laughing gaily, radiant with JOY.
"My love-" he said, 1.-THE tombstones

''Michetti!' Laura echoed. "Stefano,
it cannot be that you are the sculptor

Even so, signorina, he said, laugh
ing. They who know me call me
generally nothing but Stefano, but my
family name is Michetti. l rejoice that

''Oh, how could you deceive me?'
she cried responsibility.

glancing around the room, he said:

He drew aside the brown drapery,
and revealed the most exquisite panels
and fret-work, beautiful sculptured bas-

the art-world was raying.

The "repeat" was by request OF the
Geo w. DE Long Post, G. A. r., and
in aid of the Relief Fund of that
worthy organization. Mr.. J. Il.
White, an earnest and energetic
member of the Post, had charge of
the decorations for the occasion, and
succeeded in making as artistic and
tasteful a display of flags as could be
imagined. At the back of the plat
form, directly behind the speaker.
was hung large portrait of Lieuten-
ant-Commander Geo. w. belong,
with two large American flags on
each side, and the Hawaiian flag
showing between their folds above
the portrait. In the centre of the
hall, below the ceiling, were four
American flags crossed in way to
produce n pleasing effect. Ban
nerets, representing every State in
the Union, were hung around the
walls OF the hall. The room was
comfortably filed with an attentive
and interested audience. Post Com
mander r. w. Lame presided, and
the members of the Post sat in n
body near the platform. The lecture
was preceded by some inspiriting
music. Mr.. II. w. Morse sang
"Tramp, Tramp" Mrs. Cruzan, "Take
up your gun and go, john" Mr..
Yarndley, Marching through Geor-
gia," the audience joining heartily in
the chorus in each case. The Chairman
offered few remarks that We're brief
but pointed, and then gave place to
Mr.. Booth, who, went over pretty
much the same ground as on the
first occasion Of delivering the lecture.
Many of The audience had heard it
before, but they seemed to listen with
all the intentness and interest of
persons hearing new story. The
lecture occupied most Of two hours,
and unclaimed the attention OF the
entire audience from beginning to
end, Frequent applause greeted the
speaker, which seemed to inspire him
with augmented iervor, The Geo
w. De Long Post is to be congratu-
lated on securing the re-delivery OF
this Interesting lecture, and on a
nice little needed addition to their
Relief Fund.
